<p>This source line defines a static variable at file scope:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">static int s_g_repeat
</pre></div>

<p>The following stab describes the symbol:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">.stabs &quot;s_g_repeat:S1&quot;,38,0,0,_s_g_repeat
</pre></div>

<p>The assembler transforms the stab into this symbol table entry in the
<samp>.o</samp> file.  The location is expressed as a data segment offset.
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">00000084 - 00 0000 STSYM s_g_repeat:S1
</pre></div>

<p>In the symbol table entry from the executable, the linker has made the
relocatable address absolute.
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">0000e00c - 00 0000 STSYM s_g_repeat:S1
</pre></div>
